Hello,
You will need to reset your XM radio, follow these steps to reset the radio,
Collect and read all of your XM radio documentation, which should
include a manual and an 8-digit XM Radio User ID.
Refresh your XM radio through the XM radio website. Tune the radio to
the XM preview channel and then input your XM user ID at the XM radio
activation reset site. Allow a few minutes for the XM service to reset.
Also, you can manually reset the XM radio without going to the website. A general hard
reset can be performed on the unit by selecting the "Menu" option and
then selecting "Restore Factory Defaults". The wording may vary, but by
selecting to restore all factory defaults the XM radio receiver will be
returned to the state it was in when purchased.
Test the XM radio reception after the reset has been completed. Tune the
XM receiver to the preview channel to see if the radio is receiving the
requested satellite feed. If not, then contact the manufacturer of the
receiver and not XM, as further XM radio resets may have to be performed
by the manufacturer of the unit.
Take care.
